When I was a kid we took pillow cases trick or treating. Most kids did that I knew. There were no purpose built bags. Was I disadvantaged?

📷 Layla's going to live with a couple who lost their longtime boxer companion before Thanksgiving. Big, fenced yard, and Dad works from home.

She was being fostered here until the just the right match could be made, and I'm confident it has. ❤️

I held a conch shell to my ear once and heard Kool and the Gang.

Hey, brother. Hope your're good.

Question about upgrading music and videos.

I posted Luscious Jackson and Monie Love clips tonight, both CD quality or whatever it's called. Not "upgraded." Since some fans are upgrading and posting music videos using AI (🤷‍♂️ ) how expensive and/or legally complicated is it for an artist/label to upgrade and release a song/video? The two songs are favorites from the 90s and haven't been updated. Thanks. x

:deadbird: If you're still an active Twitter user, you're a collaborator in Elon Musk's racism and anti-Semitism.

I don't know how to put it more plainly or urgently than LEAVE TWITTER and stop collaborating.

There is no excuse not to, and there are no exceptions.

Look who jumped into my car tonight when I was out taking pictures!

I texted the only person I knew who might take them in, and they agreed to. So, kitty’s out of the cold and in good hands, with better prospects than most strays tonight. 🙏

A firetruck with EMTs was the first to arrive. Two minutes later, an ambulance arrived. This was 90 minutes ago.

It's over now. Just received an "all clear" text from Sister from the ER. She had chest pains not relieved by nitroglycerin. EKG and enzyme test were OK. Doc expects blood work to clear her completely.

📷 Up from a 2-hour nap at 8:30, I hurried out to see what the sunset might look like. Opened the front door, and the humidity hit, then I saw the street was wet. It had rained—stormed. There were large green elm leaves in the yard from the neighbor's tree.

Picked up my regular Cucumber/Lime/Mango Lemonade at Circle K and pulled into an abandoned convenience store across from the megachurch to watch the last light.
